Battle Through the Heavens: His comprehension is extraordinary, shocking Yao Lao from the very begin

Chapter 502 Unsealing Zhukun

The moment those eyes opened, they locked onto Xiao Yan.

At the same time, an extremely terrifying pressure enveloped Xiao Yan.

Enveloped by that terrifying pressure, Xiao Yan's expression changed.

The person standing before me, one of the strongest in the world, a peak nine-star Dou Sheng, is still unfathomably powerful even though he is restricted by the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe.

However, having already decided to come here, Xiao Yan naturally had his reasons.

"Since we've come here, we've naturally made some preparations." Xiao Yan reached out and took out one-eighth of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade.

He had worn this fragment of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade for a long time and had studied it extensively.

If we can join forces with Zhukun, it is not entirely impossible to open the ancient Tuoshe Emperor's cave with just this broken jade.

"There's jade!" Upon hearing this, a voice filled with boundless joy resounded through the space. The giant eyes focused their attention, and all eyes were locked on the ancient jade in Xiao Yan's hand.

However, upon seeing the ancient jade in Xiao Yan's hand, a wave of disappointment and chilling killing intent quickly overshadowed his surprise: "Fragments?!"

"If you're strong enough, even without the fragments, you can still enter this cave." Xiao Yan casually tossed the ancient jade in his hand between the man and the beast. "Guardian beast, if you want to end your duties, provide a little surprise."

"A tomb guardian beast?!" Zhu Kun was stunned. He never expected that he, the Emperor of the Ancient Dragon of the Void, would be called a tomb guardian beast. Moreover, the person who said this was a... two-star Dou Zun.

"A mere two-star Dou Zun dares to spout such arrogant words. It seems I've been imprisoned for too long, and I'm going to have a wild goose chase with a junior like you."

In the silent space, a deafening roar resounded, and the enormous body that had been entrenched for countless years suddenly surged.

Immediately, a mouthful of purplish-gold blood spurted out.

However, given Zhu Kun's enormous size at this moment, the mouthful of blood he spat out was even larger than the size of the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

Its immense energy is enough to burst even a Dou Zun or a regular Dou Sheng.

"Boy, remember this well: I am Zhukun, the Emperor of the Ancient Dragons of the Void. I am not the tomb guardian beast of this Ancient Emperor Situoshe."

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Zhu Kun corrected him.

Having been trapped in front of the ancient Tuoshe Emperor's cave for many years, countless years have passed. Zhu Kun is not short of a little time, nor is he short of a little essence and blood.

Moreover, with his meager strength at the Dou Zun level, Zhu Kun didn't believe that this human was simply lucky to be the first person in countless years to arrive at the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's cave.

Perhaps, he really does possess some abilities he is unaware of.

Xiao Yan nodded slightly, and then suddenly thrust out both palms, each unleashing a cluster of dazzling imperial flames that hurtled towards the ancient jade.

"Buzz!"

Enveloped by the imperial flame, the ancient jade, which had originally only emitted a faint luster, actually began to emit a subtle humming sound.

Moreover, the light grew stronger and stronger, and a suction force was released from the Emperor Flame that was wrapped in the Emperor Flame, like a whale drinking water, absorbing Zhu Kun's large mass of essence blood into the ancient jade.

When the essence and blood are fully absorbed, strange fluctuations emanate from the ancient jade, and strange patterns flow faintly on the surface of the jade, as if it has come to life.

Just then, Xiao Yan spat out a mouthful of blood essence, which shot out like a blood arrow onto the revived ancient jade. He formed hand seals and roared, "Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Formation, repair!"

Xiao Yan had no idea what kind of array patterns were drawn on the ancient jade.

However, since this is something of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, it's not entirely wrong to call it the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Formation.

The complete Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade has three functions.

First, the figure of the ancient emperor Tuoshe that appeared had the location of his cave dwelling in his eyes.

Secondly, the key to the Tuoshegudi Cave can open the gate of the Tuoshegudi Cave.

Third, by using the ancient emperor Tuoshe's alchemy technique, the ancient jade can be activated into an alchemy ring, which has a strong restraining effect on imperial-grade nascent pills and will be able to restore them to their pill form.

What Xiao Yan is doing now is using the fragments of the ancient jade and his and Zhu Kun's blood essence to recreate the patterns on the complete ancient jade.

He can't create a complete Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade right now, but if he restores the formation, he can achieve the same effect of unsealing Zhukun. Even if it takes some effort to use it, it's not a big problem.

Looking at the colorful patterns derived from the ancient jade fragments, Zhu Kun gasped in astonishment.

The ancient jade was the possession of the ancient emperor Tuoshe. With the strength of a Dou Di, who seemed to be the ruler of heaven and earth, even he, a peak nine-star Dou Sheng, was easily suppressed like an ant for countless years. How could he dare to think of imitating it!

I'm afraid that, apart from the person before me, there is probably no one else on the entire Dou Qi Continent who would dare to imitate the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade.

Zhu Kun thought to himself: I wonder if this inferior key can activate the ancient Tuoshe Emperor's cave?

With his boundless soul drawing upon the power of his essence blood, Xiao Yan focused intently on completing the array patterns.

This is the first time they've shown such seriousness since their strength skyrocketed.

The difficulty lies in the fact that refining ten batches of grade nine pills is now more than ten times harder for him.

The entire area in front of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's cave fell into boundless silence once again, with only the dazzling light slowly writhing.

A burst of brilliant light suddenly flashed, and the array patterns completely closed. The Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Array was complete!

A dazzling beam of light suddenly shot out from the needle plate and shone directly onto the ancient stone gate.

"boom!"

As the beam of light shot out, the ancient gate that had been tightly closed for millennia began to tremble.

Immediately afterwards, an ancient wave, seemingly originating from the distant past, emanated from the cave of the ancient emperor Tuoshe.

Under such fluctuations, Xiao Yan was immediately struck as if by a heavy blow. His protective defenses from the Super Fallen Heart Flame and his super-strong physique, which he had cultivated to this day, were as fragile as paper at this moment, completely losing their defensive capabilities. He was instantly blasted back a thousand feet away.

"The strength of a Dou Di is indeed terrifying!" Xiao Yan landed steadily and looked at the cave dwelling that was fluctuating in shock.

Within the Endless Fire Domain Spirit Realm, the special medicinal herbs cultivated by the Flame Willow Spirit immediately took effect, instantly restoring Xiao Yan's injuries to full health.

As the pressure on his body suddenly eased, Zhu Kun's massive body began to tumble.

Amidst a deafening roar, Xiao Yan finally got a full look at Zhu Kun's body. The enormous body covered in purple-gold scales was truly massive.

A burst of intense light erupted, and the enormous body suddenly shrank rapidly, transforming in a mere instant into a middle-aged man with a full head of purple-gold hair. Standing before the ancient Tuoshe Emperor's cave, he roared to the sky, "I, Zhukun, have emerged!"

"Senior, don't be too happy yet," Xiao Yan immediately poured cold water on the situation.

"What?" Zhu Kun's excitement came to an abrupt halt. He lowered his head slightly and looked towards Xiao Yan in the distance.

If someone had told him before that the cave of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor could be opened by a human with the rank of a two-star Dou Zun, he would never have believed it, even if he were beaten to death.

However, the fact that his body was freed from its predicament made him dare not underestimate a person at the level of a two-star Dou Zun.

"If this Tuoshe Cave had truly been opened, the ancient Tuoshe Emperor's cave would no longer be here, and the cave's gate should have been open as well, but none of that has happened." Xiao Yan picked up the ancient jade fragment that had been shaken off and placed it in front of him.

At this moment, it was completely different from its dazzling appearance when it absorbed the essence blood. It was dull all over, like an ordinary jade pendant.

Zhu Kun focused his mind and sensed for a moment, then looked angrily at the large characters on the stone gate of the cave.

Although he is now less suppressed, his activities are limited to the ancient Tuoshe Emperor's cave, and his strength has not yet recovered to its peak level.

Seeing Zhu Kun's reaction, Xiao Yan knew that Zhu Kun had understood his situation.

This was the best outcome he had anticipated.

With his current strength as a two-star Dou Zun, it would be a pipe dream to completely open up the cave of the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor.

Unsealing the Zhukun Cave is the first step in forcibly opening the ancient Tuoshe Emperor's cave.

And he has now completed this step.

Next, he would raise his strength to its peak, and then combine it with Zhu Kun's terrifying power to shake the ancient Tuoshe Emperor's cave.

Zhu Kun said, "The ancient jade fragments are still there. Your idea is good, but your strength is too weak. Teach me the method to repair the formation, and I will take you to open the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Cave. You will be rewarded with plenty of good stuff then."

Xiao Yan remained unmoved and said, "Sorry, I prefer to be in charge. How to open the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's cave is still up to me."

"Hmm?" Zhu Kun frowned slightly and chuckled, "With your strength as a two-star Dou Zun, even if you're capable, do you think you can order me around?"

"Is a two-star Dou Zun level strength not enough?" As he spoke, Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with dazzling colorful flames.

In the endless fiery domain, flames arrayed themselves, and countless living beings once again provided Xiao Yan with their own energy.

An overwhelming and unparalleled aura swept over them, and Zhu Kun looked at Xiao Yan in shock: "A Dou Sheng... and his strength is still increasing!"

He had heard of secret techniques to enhance strength, but he had never heard of a secret technique that could directly elevate a Dou Zun to the level of a Dou Sheng.

It's important to understand that the difference between the two is enormous.

Could it be that after being imprisoned in the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Cave for so many years, the cultivation practices outside have undergone earth-shattering changes? Zhu Kun wondered to himself.

Thinking of his terrifying strength, which was only one step away from becoming a Dou Di, and the possibility that he might lose his value even after leaving the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's cave due to not keeping up with the times, Zhu Kun couldn't help but feel a little sad.

The power of the strange fire greatly increased, and Medusa broke through to the Dou Sheng realm due to her special cultivation techniques and physique. In addition, a group of powerful fire lizardmen and many other creatures cultivated and became stronger.

Having once again consolidated the strength of the entire Endless Fire Domain, Xiao Yan's improvement was incomparable to what it had been before.

"And now?" With his strength stabilized at the two-star Dou Sheng level, Xiao Yan asked calmly.

Zhu Kun smiled slightly: "The gap between Dou Sheng is even greater. Even if I only use my soul power, you are no match for me. Kid, you are not old. If you cultivate for a few more decades, you might be able to exchange a few blows with me."

"Why wait decades!" Xiao Yan spread his arms, immediately drawing upon the free-flowing power of the Five Elements in the world, "Five Dragons Flourishing Divine Power!"

With the compensation of attributes, Xiao Yan is now able to fully utilize the power of the five elements.

The Five Dragons Grand Mystic Technique, far more powerful than the Heavenly Fire Three Transformations, was unleashed to its peak by Xiao Yan at this moment.

With a hum, the entire space trembled in unison, and the energy of heaven and earth surged forth rapidly, with pure attributes quickly converging.

Even Zhu Kun was astonished to see the five five-colored divine dragons formed from the energy of heaven and earth in the blink of an eye. The power of this secret technique was enough to allow an ordinary Dou Sheng to defy fate.

With the power of the five dragons upon him, Xiao Yan's strength increased dozens of times in an instant.

At the same time, numerous different flames emerged from Xiao Yan's body, transforming into the shape of armor. The brilliant colors, along with the solidification of the armor, merged into a deep black, and the colorful light became some decorations on various parts of his body.

It is an upgraded version of the Flame Spirit Armor, based on the characteristics of many different flames, and a powerful battle armor formed by manipulating different flames. It has the terrifying effect of absorbing thousands of energies and reflecting attacks.

Unlike the ordinary people outside, Zhu Kun is one of the strongest in the world. Xiao Yan has raised his strength to its peak and also used secret techniques that he had never used before in a stronger form.

Furthermore, Xiao Yan regarded this battle as a trial in his fight against the Heavenly Evil God.

Although he possessed numerous secret techniques to enhance his strength, there was still a significant gap between him and Zhu Kun. His victory lay in the pinnacle of the Blood Seal and the mastery of his weapon.

If he were to enter the Great Thousand World in the future and face the Heavenly Evil God alone, it would be very similar to the current situation.

Given a significant difference in strength, to what extent can an attack on bloodline be unleashed?

This battle will provide an answer.

Faced with Xiao Yan, whose strength had undergone a tremendous transformation, Zhu Kun suppressed his smile and became serious for the first time.

"Please confess." Xiao Yan gestured for him to confess, then moved swiftly, instantly appearing before Zhu Kun with a powerful and imposing Pure Yang palm strike.

This fighting technique was originally only at the Earth rank, but at that time his strength was low, and with the addition of the Flame Seal to his internal fighting qi, he could barely perform an Earth rank fighting technique.

At this moment, his strength has undergone a qualitative change. This familiar fighting technique has been adjusted several times, and when he uses it, it has the power of a Heaven-rank fighting technique.

With a single palm strike, the space collapsed almost instantly, and a chilling black halo rapidly spread out from Xiao Yan's palm.

"What a fine Pure Yang Palm!" Zhu Kun shouted, and the shattered space miraculously reversed and flowed back, as if time had gently caressed it, restoring a peaceful tranquility.

Xiao Yan's palm strike, imbued with terrifying power capable of shaking the heavens and trembling the space, slammed heavily onto Zhu Kun's indestructible chest.

However, this powerful blow, strong enough to shake all things and collapse space, vanished without a trace upon touching Zhukun's body, like a stream flowing into a vast ocean.

Zhu Kun moved his legs slightly, lightly and steadily, skillfully guiding all the impact and residual force he had received to the vast earth, making it invisible, fully demonstrating his unfathomable cultivation and calm demeanor.
